Confused Newbie here with a few questions

If you're after 48mg and below unflavoured nic, e-cig.com is the way to go. Dirt cheap and good quality.
You'll get a years supply (500mL 36mg) for about $50 via DHL.

If you're after the premium stuff and the higher concentrations, I would highly reccomend NicVape.com.

Thanks Kritikal - is this what e-cig.com call the best mix 1?

Hi all,
just ordered a 1000mAh eGo-C Starter Kit from Vapebar last night and would like some input from experienced vapers on any other equipment I may need? I have read through the forum and getting a tad confused with all the izers (atomizers, cartomizers) and the rest of stuff, double coil whatsis etc. I havent placed an order for nico yet and need advice on this also - I currently smoke about 15-20 6mg cigs a day. Anyone know where I could "borrow" some nico (i'm in Fortitude Valley) until i place my order and receive it? Thanks in advance for any help offered.

As Dawzzy said it's 50%PG/50%VG.

I would suggest getting these options.

Liquid Base: (2). VG base.
Nicotine Density: (07). 48mg
Flavour: 191. Flavourless

Then leave the flavour strength as light, otherwise you're just paying more for flavourless.

48mg would allow you to mix at 1/3 for 16mg, 1/4 for 12mg and 1/2 for 24mg.

I would imagine you would be happy at 1/3 (16mg) which would give you a perfect PG/VG ratio in your juice. Just buy some PG and use 100% PG doublers. You could do the 1/4 nic no problem if you found 16 too strong which would give you a nice mix of 25%VG.
If you mixed at half it might be a little thick for some devices but if you found you liked 24mg, you could add a few drops of water or vodka to thin it down or buy some PG nicotine and mix them together.

If you went with 36mg, you're restricted to 18mg or lower, unless you buy triplers but not all sites sell triplers.

I suppose you could buy a smallish bottle of 36mg and a smallish bottle of 48mg, so you could play with different strengths.


Sorry, I'd love to add more detail and explain everything better but the misses is getting pissed at me, she wants me start dinner. Best to do what she says when she's hungry.
I'll edit this post later on tonight and make it easier to understand.

Yep you're right, my mistake!

Here you go targaboy:
https://www.e-cig.com/shopping/produ...-Liquid-Bases/

Will cost you about $38 for 500mL of 48mg nicotine shipped via DHL. You can't go past that, that's damn cheap! Should only take 8 days at the most to arrive.
Might just order some for myself.

sure is cheap and its only about 10$ dearer to get a litre good value

[kritikal]

The litre would be the way to go.

The litre would be the way to go.

My thoughts exactly 2x 1L would be better get one in PG & 1 in VG, then when the zombie apocalypse comes, you'll be able to lock yourself away & vape in contentment

Thanks Kritkal and Dawzzy - u just made it much easier for me
